- Ukraine -
This is an ongoing project to coordinate, condense, and organize information about the many shtetls and cities which had Jewish populations.
The following is from the ShtetlMaster Project Description, link below.
Organized, by Gubernia, each town's ShtetlMaster Locality Page will contain the basic information for that town: Modern town name; alternate and historical names for the town; latitude and longitude; a small auto-generated inset map of the town's region, centered on that town; the town's political jurisdictions during various time periods; Jewish population figures during various time periods; names of the nearby Jewish communities (within 10-20 miles, with each hyperlinked to its respective ShtetlMaster Locality Page); links to JewishGen resources for that town (JGFF, ShtetLinks, etc.); links to JewishGen resources for the containing regions (SIGs, etc.)
Information on this project is here.
